Taylor Hart reuinited with Chip Kelly and Coach Azzinaro

Taylor Hart fits the Eagles 3-4 defense so well Chip Kelly wanted to draft him in an earlier round. But he was talked out of it by the Philly GM who said to wait because he'd be there in the 5th round. He was, and now he's an Eagle. The Tualatin, Oregon native can play either end or tackle in the Eagles' scheme and he should pick up the defense pretty quickly with his college position coach now working as his professional coach. Lots of things to like about this if you're Taylor Hart.

One of the things Philly fans should like is the versatility Hart will give their defensive line. Add Hart's shorter learning curve than most rookies with his knowledge of how Kelly and Azz run things and this looks like a really good spot for Hart.

His work ethic is tremendous as he's taken himself from a 3-star rated player in Oregon to the NFL with four years of effort, sweat and determination. In Philly Hart will join an ever crowding group of Ducks in the locker room that will have Josh Huff, Jeff Maehl, Casey Matthews and undrafted signee Wade Keliikipi.
